Perfect In Pink & Purple! {Crystal Lake Newborn Photographer}

Such a gorgeous little girl.  She was a rock star through her session.  She was super alert for pictures with Mom and Dad and couldn’t take her eyes off of them.  She took a pretty good nap for me to get through some more pictures and then woke up and opened her big, gorgeous eyes.  I would say she looks just like her mama.

New Family of Three {Crystal Lake Newborn Photographer}

It’s an honor for me every single time a client refers a friend to me.  A client who has been with me for years (thanks, Amy) referred this adorable young couple.  They traveled with their little bundle from Chicago.  Mom is a firefighter there….yes, I said Mom.  How awesome is that?

They also brought a long a blanket that Grandma quilted all by hand.  It was GORGEOUS!!!!

Enjoy this adorable session with this perfectly sleepy little girl!

Extended Family Session at Golden Hour {Crystal Lake Family Photographer}

I always love seeing this family!  They are always so easy to work with.  It was a pleasure to meet Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Matt this time around.

We ended up with an absolutely gorgeous night at the end of September.   And I’m going to say it again,  I LOVE SEPTEMBER SUNSETS!!!

We lost the sun and I just kept on shooting.  I could not get over the gorgeous we had.

Family of 5 Early Fall Session {Crystal Lake Family Photographer}

Sometimes I just know a session is going to be amazing after the first click of the camera.  This was definitely one of those sessions!  I met this gorgeous family just last year when Mom was pregnant with baby #3 and I’m so glad I have been able to see them a couple of times since.

They are always easy going and fun to work with!

Oh September sunsets….come back!

All-American Boy {Crystal Lake Child Photographer}

I met this little man about 24 hours after he was born and then had the privilege of photographing him a week after that in the studio.   I was able to capture all his milestones throughout the year and cannot believe he is now O-N-E!!!!

Oh, little man, I can’t wait to watch you grow!

Sweet red-headed baby girl {Crystal Lake Newborn Photographer}

I seem to have had a lot of red heads in the studio lately but this was the first time these Irish red heads were actually from Ireland!  I could have listened to Mom talk all day.

This is why I don’t trust forecasts {Crystal Lake Family Photographer}

So all day we were back and forth about this session.   It was really windy and raining on and off.  I wasn’t holding out too much hope that the session was going to workout.  Thank goodness this family was very flexible and we were able to make the call last minute.  The skies just kept getting better!!!!

So glad it worked out!
